The purpose of his testi was to identify various cards, and ledger sheets belonging to the bank to show that Wan actually opened an account there in July, 1918, Difficulty was encountered hy Georz, 1 Horning, jr., assistant United States attorney In charge of direct ex- amination, in having the documents admitted as evidence. Defense coun sel strenuously maintained that they could not be accepted by the court b cause the witness did not know the de fendant or that he had any connec- tion with the case. The question of their admissibility was the subject of several conferences hetween Justice Stafford and counsel for both sides, and likewise the basis of much delay. Prosecution Drops Issue. The prosecution finally dropped ef- forts to have the documents intro- duced at this time. Mrs. Bartells, under direct examina. tion, testified she saw Wan January and did not see him again until i‘riday morning, January 31. Van, the brother, left her home January 28, she said. and on the afternoon of the thir- tieth she saw him for the first time in two day She detailed the visit of Detectives Burlingame and Kelly, who, with New York detective, interviewed Wan as he lay ill in bed. She also told of the visit of Detective Kelly Monday, February 3. and Van's departure with | him. Detective Kelly returned to her home the succeeding Thursday, she said, and told her to lock the room for ouple of davs. Kelly, she said, car- ried away some “‘papers and things." In answer to questions by Mr. Lam- hert. the witness said Van came to her home early in 1918 and visits from Wan over week en Later, she said, Wan took a room for himself. She gave Wan a bottle of whisky the Sunday before he left for Washington and Wan drank the con- tents of the bottle. Van to Mrs. Bartells that Wan was drunk, she said, and Wan later secured an- other bottle from her, which she got for him by a ruse. Il While Coming Here. When Wan departed for Washing ton, Wednesday, January 22, he was “sick in the stomach,” the witness said, adding he had been suffering from stomach trouble two ore three weeks before. He had lived on black coffee and toast during that time and always was in bed. He appeared ‘‘weak” when he left for this city, she said, and when he returned he complained of illness again explaining he had eaten a steak in Washington, she added. There was no question of whisky this time, she testified. Mr. Lambert drew from the witness that the Washington detectives showed their badges when they entered her house, but no search warrants or authority from the’ State. She said the mattress had been ripped open and the room searched and letters and She de- to say whether the detectives (Ce received | complained | Nty RUNPRESLRPTON PSICANS i NE naturalized American citizens or | visitors from any other nation. and against all temporary residents of the United States, whether in an official capacity or otherwise, was introduced to day by Senator Bl of South Carolina to the judictary The measure 1 laws of A Bill which would require eral officers 1 o Al the United States with equal force against all persons whether they be Vorce | Check-Up of Use of Permits JSenator pease | Will Bring Several Be- commitiee: | fore Inquiry Bod; defines the territory of the United States as fncluding all houses and land of whatever kind and nature |DRUGGISTS ALSOV UNDER and buildings or structures situ ated in the territory of the United | States.
